We will be meeting at the southbound Park and Ride at Rohnert Park Expressway in Rohnert Park for caravaning. If you have not been to the Park and Ride before and are coming south on Hwy 101 take the Rohnert Park Expressway exit and get in the middle lane when you get to the lights, proceed straight across over the expressway and enter the south bound entrance to the freeway south. The Park and Ride entrance is on the left. If you want to caravan down with us you can meet us here. Please plan on being at the rest stop at 9:50 am in order to leave by 10:00 am.
2nd LEG
Santa Rosa to Portola Valley
Take Hwy 101 south to San Francisco, then take the 19th Avenue exit which will turn into Highway 280. Take the Alpine Road exit off of Highway 280 and go westbound towards Portola Valley.
We will be stopping in the parking lot of a small Ęshopping center (don't know the name) on Alpine Road for lunch. The shopping center is on the Right hand side of the road as you head west on Alpine Road. Not too far after you exit highway 280, you cant miss it. This is just minutes from Littlefields and we can caravan to his house from there. We will meet at about 12:00pm. Bring a lunch and join us there.

Go 2.5 miles on Alpine Rd; turn left on Los Trancos Road, go 1.9 miles. Turn left on Ramona, left on Vista Verde, left on Old Spanish Trail. That will dead end into Pony Tracks Ranch. The gates will open if you drive up to them. After passing the gates, bear right at the fork in the road and park by the large brown building.
